Zell awoke inside his room. He covered his face from the bright light of his monitor. An annoying tone sounded from his phone's loud alarm. He kicked out and smashed the phone into the wall, causing a crack. His eyes widened at the speed and power of his movements.
"Woah… Far beyond my chubby self before…."
—|Zell: 'What happened!?'
After ten minutes, his eyes finally adjusted to the dark. Slowly, his hands stroked his body and face and entered his loose boxer shorts.
"Still huge, firm muscles… Handsome face!? It wasn't a dream! Hahaha!"
Zell rolled out of his bed towards the white door filled with anime girl pictures. He rushed into the hallway with wooden flooring. It was cold, as the winter winds were still powerful.
He remembered the history slowly from his vague mind. In the year 2032, countless natural disasters struck the world. The rising temperature from global warming and pollution caused the end. After this year, the population shrank by 60%.
His world became based on the continent and sector as the countries struggled to rebuild themselves.
Zell lived in an empire called Europea V in the northwest of Europa. To its east was the Great Ruzza Empire, a nation buried in an endless snowstorm.
A small island nation with a long history fell into corruption to the northwest.
The Brittanic Empire ruled well in the end times. He remembered their powerful holy knights standing tall against the demons in many PV videos early into the world's merger. He tried to think of more details. They could fight so hard because The Brittanic Empire accepted all races, creeds and beliefs into their kingdom.
"Hah, that was the lies that they spouted. Those poor people fled in droves. Only to be used as cannon fodder to resist the demon invasions…."
Zell shook his head. History could wait until later. He needed to make plans, both long-term and short. His savings were enough to purchase a decent VR unit with a nutrient gel feature. There was also to decide on any people he wished to save.
"I need to find out what their features are. My world hasn't changed yet! Forget it. I think we should get things sorted fast. Tonight is a midnight launch, and I'm already one day late…."
Ping-pong!
Suddenly, his doorbell sounded, which felt weird. He was sure that his packages would come after the evening. Because he worked the night shift, Zell would sleep during the daytime. He headed towards the door with a curious face.
"Who could that be?" He said, pacing towards the large steel door. His mother used to obsess about safety, so their home was relatively safe. He opened the door and saw several couriers who pushed into his house. On the massive steel dolly was a huge metal container and several barrels.
His eyes noticed the Astral Corp logo and wondered what this was. In the past, he ordered nothing.
Zell knew this company was a massive billion-dollar company, which spent most of its enormous profits during the first year helping developing countries to buy more units and helped their guilds to form faster.
Two hours passed. All the men left, and his basement now had a fully connected VR pod. Also, two years' worth of nutrient gel was added. He saw a high-ranking director had signed the invoice. His mind raced, unable to comprehend what to do.
"This stuff is more than $12,000 in the world's current market. They couldn't make this mistake on launch day. Astra… You spoil me too much!"
—|Veronica: 'What Astra! I thought he would need help to relax before everything started. Why does that woman get everything? Why can we not speak until he creates his character!?'
He couldn't care about going to work, although it would be tough to live before the RMT system opened. Zell was no longer worried about food and could afford the electric bills because of the VR unit's rest function. It would lower the amount of power used choosing medium graphics.
—|Zell: 'Even though I love the amazing graphics, money is too tight for now. Let's aim to test my body, class and system first.'
Zell watched the clock on his wall that ticked down slowly. A sense of excitement and joy filled his body despite knowing the truth. He loved games so much that he didn't enjoy brooding over the world's end.
"Let's call my boss. I won't work there anymore, and Dave's a cunt."
A few moments later, he typed the number and listened to the dial tone, excitement filling his body. Luckily, his phone didn't break from his powerful kick.
He stood naked, wet from the shower, as the phone rang. As he stroked his tight muscles, the phone connected with a blip. A male with a rough tone answered. His manager Dave Brown, aka. Prick.
"Hello, Zell, where the fuck are you? Didn't you know I changed your shift to an early one?"
In his past life, Zell apologised like a moron here. He later realised that Dave wanted to take his rich girlfriend on a date and changed the rota illegally.
"Oh? Sorry, Dave! I will not be working today. I feel under the weather *cough* sorry!"
"You fucking what? Listen, mate, if you don't turn up within an hour, I will sack your lazy ass. Please don't test my patience, you little shit!"
"I won't treat you nicely just because your fucking dad died. So get to work, you pathetic loser."
Zell heard all he needed. This guy would fire him and show his real side the moment he didn't beg and accept. So fuck him. He could have saved him. On the day of the merger, his flat would collapse into rubble.
—|Zell: 'Well, get fucked, tosspot. The girl he dated is cheating on him, anyway.'
He tossed his phone into the air. It slammed onto the black sofa with a loud thud.
Now all his attention became fixed upon the smooth, black VR unit that hummed with a dull sound. Zell slowly walked towards it, fingertips sliding along the metal as its case slid open.
"Oh, it automatically filled the gel! Haha, let's see… Set a timer for 6 hours for now. People became sick after too long inside."
Zell knew that Astra's service made him perfected. However, he didn't want to rush and ruin something. His support angel Veronica could help him.
Later on, people discovered that the merger started on day one. Each person's body would become slowly adjusted and perfected each hour they played after the character creation screen.
Although it needed to be a full hour, not fifty-nine minutes or half, a full hour, he looked down at his body with a heavy club sitting between his legs and tight, muscular thighs.
—|Zell: 'Should I test this bad boy out first? I want to feel the enjoyment of an enormous weapon.'
—|Veronica: 'Please don't! I don't want to see your evil thing spit white fluid everywhere! Enter the damn game so I can speak with you!'
"Oooh! It's so cold!"
His fingers entered inside the soft blue gel. Somehow it tickled but felt nice as the gel tingled his flesh. When he removed the hand, it became silkier and felt more delicate to the touch. Zell brought the gel towards his nose and snorted.
"Hmmm, raspberry and cream? Does this mean it's close to food? I won't risk tasting it, though…."
—|Veronica: 'You would have so much diarrhoea if you did… At least he knows I exist and can help….'
Slowly, his body submerged into the freezing gel that made even his monster lose some power.
He gritted his teeth together before the gel transformed into a soothing warm heat that almost massaged his body. His body fell into the giant gel pit and landed on the strange slime-like cushions that adjusted to a person's spine, hips and legs to avoid long-term damage.
"Fuck, this is the $30,000 version!"
The buttons on the lid were glowing. He pressed the activation button and leaned back; a comfortable burning permeated his muscles as the lid slowly closed.
A loud bleep sounded. His ears enjoyed the motor's soft hum as it closed slowly over his face.
—|Zell: 'This is so different from a cheap headset!'

—|Zell: 'What!? Why… The gel surrounds my lower body like a mouth… Oh… this is high quality! 5/5 stars!'
—|Veronica: 'Men….'
Fifteen minutes later, the screen brightened up. At some point, he seemed to have fallen asleep and awoke naked in an enormous. Field, thousands of green oak trees and willows surrounded them all. In the distance were gigantic mountains with dragons circling them in flight.
Many people surrounded them; their bodies lacked gender, detail and faces.
—|Zell: 'Is this, by chance, the screen before character creation?'
—|Veronica: 'Indeed, my stupid master, this support angel can finally do her job.'
On his shoulder was a small, 40 cm tall, beautiful girl with green eyes with large pupils that seemed a little watery. Soft pink lips, with a thick bottom and thinner top lip, with a slightly glossy texture. Her nose was small and like a little triangle. Zell felt she was closer to anime girls than real.
Six tiny wings sprouted from her back and fluttered, and a little golden light encircled her body. She seemed smug, which irritated Zell. He was used to teaching his naughty pets off, and since she was humanoid, he flicked up her skirt.
Her bush was thick and blonde!
-
The next moment, he felt heaven's punishment!
People who played this game were supposed to feel little pain. But he felt the complete 100% pain for each of these evil angels' righteous hurricane kicks to his crotch.
A thought entered his mind, one that should never have entered his mind.
—|Zell: 'My full burst is longer than her current body… I wonder if it can enter her..'
—|Veronica: 'You bastard, can you not learn!'
Thus, he once again saw her wonderful golden garden of Eden. He only hoped to complete this section and be able to defend himself. Once he could move, this damned angel would be his pleasure sleeve.
[Welcome To Astral Online!]
[Please Create Your True Selves!]
[I, The Goddess Of Light, Vestia, Shall Guide You All!]
Zell could swear this beautiful goddess with golden hair looked his way and gave a gentle snicker. He needed to tell himself he wasn't going insane or narcissistic.
Everyone made a sound. The text speech program suddenly changed from a female to a male. This game would not allow people to fake their gender. Or use an alias, as they seem to have access to your entire life's detail.
However, for those that genuinely identified as a different gender or sexuality.
This game would allow you to create your ideal self. The game gave people a sense of salvation. No longer being stuck inside the wrong bodies and not having surgery because of this magical game.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ A lengthy questionnaire would judge a person's seriousness when taking this option—created by countless countries, top psychologists and doctors. To avoid any unforeseen legal accidents.
These would change you forever after the merger.
